Ray Barone is a successful sports writer and family man who deals with a brother and parents -- who happen to live across the street. Mom Marie loves to meddle in his life, while older brother Robert sometimes resents his success, and Dad Frank just makes comments and raids the fridge. Nevertheless, Ray manages to keep a bright outlook and a sense of humor, leaving the hard issues to his more-practical wife, Debra.

Bruce Fretts Entertainment Weekly The network would be wise not only to renew it but to leave it where it is. With his winning mix of heart and humor, Romano seems the natural heir to Cos' sitcom-dad throne. Rated: B+ Oct 26, 2021 Full Review Adam Tierney IGN Movies Everybody Loves Raymond is the perfect example of a sitcom that rises above its concept. Rated: 7/10 Sep 11, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Yariel E. O Everybody loves raymond is the sitcom of a life time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/13/23 Full Review harrison r No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member As a huge fan who has seen every episode 20 times, and owns every season on DVD, there are some really great episodes this season 2. You notice in season 1 that the characters haven't fully developed yet, especially Robert and Debra's characters. In season 2, with 22 episodes under their belt, the acting is better and I think the actors feel more established with what their characters would do and how they would react in various situations.
